A History of Numerology

How long have got you got?

Where to start?

Firstly Iodine don't believe that Numerology was actually known as Numerology until the late 19th/20th Century so the history of Numerology goes a history of so much more!

Indeed, the usage of Numbers is one of the oldest metaphysical word forms of communicating that still bes and is relevant in today's sophisticated world.

When early civilisations needed to place themselves, and in consequence 'wanted to be counted' they take a symbol to stand for this.

This was the beginning of the figure 1.

A symbol to stand for man. Notice his caput and feet.

Then as clip went by and civilisations grew, there was a demand for differentiation, hence the Numbers 2 & 3.

2, a symbol to stand for more than than than one. Notice the bigger feet of two and larger rounded caput denoting two beings.

And so on.

Then as civilisations grew even more; ownership, particularly of land came into question. But how much land? The reply was to mensurate it and so Geometry was born. 'Geo' significance Earth or land and 'metry' significance measurement.

The figure 4 which can also be written as was then born to divide land into divisions of ownership. And so on.

Over 10,000 old age ago there was a grouping of people called the Chaldeans who, not surprisingly came from a topographic point called Chaldaea (also known as Sumeria) in Mesopotamia.

No-one can yet conclusively turn out how the human race came into being. Therefore we have got to trust on spiritual and metaphysical theories and explanations.

One account being that Chaldaea was where the beginnings of Horse Opera civilisation happened.

It is also widely believed that the Chaldeans beginnings were not human but from the Divine. (Not too hard to believe as Christian Religion also claims that Adam and Eve were not of human beginning either)

The missionary post of these people was to distribute hidden or Godhead cognition to mankind.

They were obviously a very Spiritual people who saw no favoritism between Spirituality, Astrology or Numerology. Every portion of their life revolved around their Spiritual beliefs. Hence, using Numbers in a Negro spiritual manner will have got been an mundane happening to them.

They understood that the Universe & everything in it, in its purest word form is energy. Therefore they understood that Numbers were portion of the energy of creative activity & that they too had their ain vibrations.

These Numbers therefore had significance and could be understood.

They gave significance to Numbers via the usage of sound (more vibration). In their system they only used the Numbers 1-8 as they felt that the figure 9 was far too sacred for mankind.

From these beginnings & as history blossoms we understand that Pythagoras took up these determinations and explored & experimented further.

He proposed that all world is mathematical and that therefore everything can be converted to a mathematical expression in order to give anything a meaning.

Hence; why, as Numerologists we convert name calling into a numerical form.

He also investigated the vibrational & hence numerical significance of sound which in bend led to him studying music. Through his probes he started to 'measure' music & this is how the musical scales of measurement came into being.

Very small is actually known about Pythagoras's instruction as he taught everything verbally.

He did not let anything to be written done as he felt that the information was too powerful & sacred to be written down in lawsuit it got into the incorrect hands.

That said, later on his mathematical theories were taught as beliefs as portion of High School geometry and still are today. But I wager you that your Mathematics instructor had also lost the sacred significance, I cognize mine had!

It was all down to one of Pythagoras's Pythagorean pupils who, at a future day of the month wrote down all that he'd learned under Pythagoras's tuition. So it is he that we have got to give thanks for continuing entree to the science, psychological science & doctrine of numbers.

Plato was very interested in Pythagoras's work and he felt that what he learned from Pythagoras was underpinned by the word of the Judaic Kabala. Adding more than than and more acceptance to the topic of what was to later go known as Numerology.

The early Christians also used Numbers & during the Renaissance there is also grounds that the spiritualty of figure was accepted & used widely.

Concentrating on modern times nearer to our own, it was a adult female called Dr Julia Elizabeth Seton who first coined the phrase Numerology. She was born in 1862 & died in 1950 and during her life lectured her manner around the human race twice explaining the physical science and Ancient wisdom behind Numbers & Numerology.

And so we come up to the present twenty-four hours when more than than than and more people are discovering Numerology and how it can animate them to develop their full potential.

With the apprehension of who we are and who we have got the potentiality to go we can all go more content, tolerant and happy people which in bend will do for a happier and peaceful
